I'm working on a plugin right now and I'm running into what I believe to be syntax problems.

Is it possible to send a command to the mud AND then disable a group of triggers from within a single trigger?

Here's how I'm attempting it...


 <trigger
   enabled="y"
   match="Pattern1"
   send_to="10"
   sequence="100"
   group="triggergroup"
  >
  <send>commands to mud</send>
  EnableTriggerGroup("triggergroup", false)
</trigger>

 <trigger
   enabled="y"
   match="Pattern2"
   send_to="10"
   sequence="100"
   group="triggergroup"
  >
  <send>other commands to mud</send>
  EnableTriggerGroup("triggergroup", false)
</trigger>

So ideally if the mud sent pattern1 and then pattern2, the first trigger would fire, send the command to the mud, and then disable the trigger group before the second trigger could fire.

Is this possible or even practical? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

try


<trigger
   enabled="y"
   match="Pattern1"
   send_to="12"
   sequence="100"
   group="triggergroup"
  >
  <send>Send("commands to mud")
  EnableTriggerGroup("triggergroup", false)
  </send>
</trigger>

 <trigger
   enabled="y"
   match="Pattern2"
   send_to="12"
   sequence="100"
   group="triggergroup"
  >
  <send>Send("other commands to mud")
  EnableTriggerGroup("triggergroup", false)
 </send>
</trigger>

But what will re-enable them?

Thanks Fiendish,

So I get a script error when I try to run it like that...

Execution of line 2 column 36
Immediate execution
Cannot use parentheses when calling a Sub
Line in error:
EnableTriggerGroup("triggergroup",false)

Is there another way to disable that trigger group?

Nevermind, I found that using the following syntax is working. Thank you for your help...

EnableTriggerGroup "triggergroup", 0

A sub? Are you using vbscript?
